Therefore, scientific methods and frameworks for research on climate change and health are of great importance. In this course scientific methods relating to climate change health impacts, climate change adaptation, and emissions reduction (i.e., mitigation) will be addressed. Course participants will learn technical concepts concerning attribution of risk/cause and effect; dealing with uncertainty; managing unusually large temporal and spatial scales (e.g. meteorology, physical geography and health); methods for climate change adaptation, such as early warnings systems and campaigns; Climate change policy and research dissemination. Also, co-benefits and mitigation strategies, such as life cycle analysis, within the health sector will be covered. The course will constitute lectures, practical exercises, seminars, plus a student project. Some changes to this course offer might occur as the course catalogue is printed before final budget decision has been taken by the medical faculty.

16 16 ANALYSING DATA IN QUALITATIVE RESEARCH, PART 2, 3 ECTS (ONLINE) Analys av data i kvalitativ forskning, del 2, 3 hp Course director Course administrator Kjerstin Dahlblom Phone number: kjerstin.dahlblom@umu.se Lena Mustonen Phone number: lena.mustonen@umu.se Department Department of Public Health and Clinical Medicine, Epidemiology and Global Health Date 8 th to 30 th of April, 2015 Language English Number of Participants 15 Form of teaching Lectures (online) 20 hours Seminars (online) 10 hours Knowledge test Home examination Contents of course Qualitative research in the field of public health is characterised by a wide range of approaches and methods of analysis. The course covers basic concepts in representation of qualitative findings and provides practical guidelines on moving from analysis to writing. This course is a follow up of an introductory course on the early steps of qualitative data analysis that lead to identifying patterns within data. The present course focuses on tactics for interpreting meaning, sorting out conclusions and constructing valid representations of qualitative data. Practical techniques, both computerassisted and manual, for interpreting data and representing the concepts and relationships within will be presented. Strategies for writing up qualitative findings will be covered, using a balance of description, analysis, interpretation and connection to other work. Methods of thematic analysis will be in focus, and the relevance of these techniques to other methods of qualitative analysis will be discussed. The course is not dependent on specialized theory, and is most appropriate for researchers who have collected qualitative data and begun the analysis process. Participants will therefore have the opportunity to use their own data in the course. This course is financed by the Swedish Research School for Global Health. Students in the Research School will be given priority.

Modern targeted treatments as well as common chemotherapy used will be discussed including mechanisms for action and resistance. After the course the students will have a better understanding of the complexity of clinical oncology and how the workup and common treatment is done for some common cancers. This will enhance the students possibility to put their own research questions into context.
